young women but is often missed on coronary angiography, especially spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). We retrospectively reviewed all coronary angiograms of women aged ≤50 at Vancouver General Hospital over 2 years. NACAD was not rare among young women

Background: Non-atherosclerotic CAD (NACAD) is an important cause of myocardial infarction
RI PT
(MI) in young women but is often missed on coronary angiography, especially spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). The prevalence of NACAD in young women has not been described.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed all coronary angiograms of women aged ≤50 at
